Thank you JobAndKnock. I am not sure what sort of surface that laminate has. However, (elsewhere) I had a Formica laminate Worktop installed some years ago and it is still in use. Now, I will either look for that type of Worktop or consider steel. The existing Worktop is 3835 X 38 mm with...

Hi guys, I had a worktop fitted about 6 years ago and I am now renovating the property. It seems the base material is actually woodchip as in so many types of furniture. Need new worktop. I have done some searching and read reviews but find it difficult to make a choice as the best ones seem...

Thank you for your response. Apologies. All the woodwork has been painted before. Finished in Brilliant White solvent based gloss paint, clean brushes in white spirit. On this occasion, woodwork sanded down, dusted, vacuumed, wiped clean with Sugar Soap. It was intended to use Undercoat...

Hello guys. Normally, I prime bare wood, undercoat, then gloss. I am now repainting previously painted surfaces. I just did not check this paint is primer. May be a silly question, but will gloss work well over the primer?. Thank you.

Hello, I am redecorating and usually had good paints. Now I have been reading reviews of different brands and some are very much not recommended. Do anyone know of any good Magnolia Vinyl Silk?. Seems to me some are manufactured according to retailer's requirements, like baked beans, for example.

Thanks to you all. Having read your responses I realise where I went wrong. I was logging off after viewing what was recorded and misread what appeared on the TV. Thank you.

Hello, My CCTV system did not come with good instructions for use. I use my Smart TV as monitor for the NVR. How can I leave the system to record without leaving the TV on?. Doing my best to learn how to use it effectively. Thank you for any advice.

Thank you, sparkymarka. Prior to my FIRST post, I had the TV and NVR linked by the HDMI cable. When I pressed the 'Source' button, 'No Signal' appeared. EXACTLY as I said in my FIRST post. It DID NOT give a Menu. It DID NOT show an onscreen label showing HDMI 1, or any HDMI. The only thing I...

Thanks. On my Remote Control that button is marked 'Source'. That is the one I pressed, when I got the 'No Signal'. So, is the problem due to the Indoor Aerial?.

Thank you. The TV is A Medion Smart 48 inch, 4K Ultra HD, with HDR X14357. NVR is : XN4P-1T. 8MP 4 Channel HD-IP NVR 1TB. I have a VGA cable to connect, but I would not know how to actually do a test. I, at first, connected TV/NVR with HDMI cable, but I would not know how to 'switch' TV to...

Thank you

Hi I am setting up CCTV, using my TV as Monitor via HDMI. TV is fine. When I switch the TV's remote to Monitor Mode, I get 'No Signal' on the screen. The TV operates on an Indoor aerial. Is it because the aerial signal is too weak for the NVR ?. I just have no idea. Any advise, please...

Hello, Setting up CCTV. Can someone advise me on the following, please?. How is it done?. Video Format: Select the correct video standard for your region. Thank you.

You are correct. It is Eternit. Thanks to you, both. The guide is very helpful.

Hello I am aware that the sizes of Roof Slates dictate the number of battens for a Pitched Roof. I do not know how to work that out. So I have included a drawing showing the distances between the holes in the Slate. Please let me know if anyone can advise. Please see drawing as attached...
